 Verse 
 
                     G#m                                     
 I was born inside a small town, I've lost that state of mind
                             E                                 F#       
 Learned to sing inside the Lord's house, but stopped at the age of nine
               B       G#m                            
 I forget when I get awards now the wave I had to ride
                       E                                F# 
 The paving stones I played upon, they kept me on the grind
             B      G#m                               
 So blame it on the pain that blessed me with the life
                                 E                                    F#  
 Friends and family filled with envy when they should be filled with pride
              B        G#m                                  
 And when the world's against me is when I really come alive
                          E                                 F#   
 And everyday that Satan tempts me, I try to take it in my stride
               B        G#m                                          
 You know that I've got whisky with white lines and smoke in my lungs
                  E                               F#         
 I think life has got to the point I know without it's no fun
   B       G#m                                      
 I need to get in the right mind and clear myself up
             E                              F#             
 Instead, I look in the mirror questioning what I've become
         B      G#m                                  
 I guess it's a stereotypical day for someone like me
            E                     F#        
 Without a nine-to-five job or an uni degree
 B     G#m                                       
 To be caught up in the trappings of the industry
                     E                          F#                        
 They showed me the locked doors I find another use of key, and you'll see
 
 Chorus 
 
 E          B                F#          F#/C#                    
  I'm well aware of certain things that will destroy a man like me
 E               B                D#7        G#m 
  But with that said give me one more, higher
 E              F#                G#m 
 Another one to take the sting away
      E           F#                   G#m 
 I am happy on my own, so here I'll stay
           E            F#           G#m 
 Save your lovin' arms for a rainy day
               E              F#        
 And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser

 I used to think that nothing could be better than touring the world with my songs
              E                                   F#              
 I chased the pictured perfect life, I think they painted it wrong
   B          G#m                                       
 I think that money is the root of evil and fame is hell
 E                             F#                      B 
 Relationships and hearts you fixed, they break as well
      G#m                                        
 And ain't nobody wanna see you down in the dumps
                 E                           F#                
 Because you're living your dream, man, this sh*t should be fun
        B         G#m                                           
 Please know that I'm not trying to preach like I'm Reverend Run
            E                              F#             
 I beg you, don't be disappointed with the man I've become
        G#m                                 
 Our conversations with my father on the A14
 E                                 F#               
 Age twelve telling me I've gotta chase those dreams
  B      G#m                                          
 Now I'm playing for the people, dad, and they know me
         E                                 F#            
 With my beat and small guitar wearing the same old jeans
         G#m                                         
 Wembley Stadium crowd two hundred and forty thousand
             E                       F#            
 I may have grown up but I hope that Damien's proud
      B     G#m                                   
 And to the next generation, inspiration's allowed
           E                                F#                     
 The world may be filled with hate but keep erasing it now, somehow

  I'm well aware of certain things that will befall a man like me
 E               B                D#7        G#m 
  But with that said give me one more, higher
 E              F#                G#m 
 Another one to take the sting away
      E           F#                   G#m 
 I am happy on my own, so here I'll stay
           E            F#           G#m 
 Save your lovin' arms for a rainy day
               E              F#       G#m

  I guess you know I've been away
